So i would like some advice and please forgive me if i chose the wrong subforum.
I recently moved to a bigger house and as such i was fortunate to get a new dedicated room for my gaming rig and diy stuff etc. Now the problem is my config is quite a heatmonster which was never a problem in the old situation. But the problem is the room is quite small and heats up very quickly with the door closed, which i have to do to not disturb others when they're sleeping.
The specs are a [email protected] 1.3v and a 290X. So that's 2 components that are going to give problems(atleast together). I've decided at least one of them has to go, maybe even both. But the question is which will be the bigger contributor to the heat in my room.
Some insight would be welcome, i'm tempted to just sell these components and buy a 4790K and 980GTX and be done with this sauna.
I usually play cpu intensive games like civ5, wow and others but in retrospect i think the 3930k was a mistake on my part.
